She finally begins to grow comfortable around her leonine companion, until another warrior intervenes to save her when creatures from the Dead Fall attack them during their exploration, suddenly making everything much more complicated.

It should also be noted that the alien heroes in these books are alien in both appearance and attributes, and this might make some readers uncomfortable, as their cultures and mating habits might not be for everyone.

Book Description
A fated mate she doesn't want. An enigmatic alien she shouldn't want. Finding your way in the Dead Fall isn't easy, but it's nothing compared to figuring out what your heart truly desires. Evie managed to survive for months in the strange parallel dimension where she was dropped after accidentally activating a portal in her father's shed. The Dead Fall doesn't treat survivors kindly, as Evie discovers when she's captured by alien creatures and taken to the settlement of Omni to be put on display in a bar. When a gray alien appears in the bar to rescue her, she wonders at first if she hasn't gone straight from the frying pan into the fire. Yet, the alien she nicknames Gray proves to be friendly, if a bit too determined to see her meet some destined mate she's not interested in finding.Gray tells her she must seek her own destiny, but she can't help thinking she's already found it, despite what he says. After all, her knight in shining armor has come to rescue her, and if he just so happens to have a flying saucer instead of a white horse, that's okay with her. Doshakeren is a hero. A legend. They sing epic songs about the warrior among his kin. When his most trusted adviser betrays him and locks him away with a strange artifact that casts him into another realm, he faces challenges beyond anything he'd ever faced before-the biggest being his fascination with the human female who makes him have forbidden thoughts that would see him outcast from his nest.Evie must choose her own destiny, but nothing will be easy for her, least of all the Dead Fall itself, because the Nexus is watching. And waiting.Author's Note: 18+ Violence and explicit sex scenes. This is a MFM romance with ménage. These alien heroes are very alien and have mating habits that might not be for everyone.

Pages : 401
Book Description
In Benjamin Percy's new thriller, a post-apocalyptic reimagining of the Lewis and Clark saga, a super flu and nuclear fallout have made a husk of the world we know. A few humans carry on, living in outposts such as the Sanctuary-the remains of St. Louis-a shielded community that owes its survival to its militant defense and fear-mongering leaders. Then a rider comes from the wasteland beyond its walls. She reports on the outside world: west of the Cascades, rain falls, crops grow, civilization thrives. But there is danger too: the rising power of an army that pillages and enslaves every community they happen upon. Against the wishes of the Sanctuary, a small group sets out in secrecy. Led by Lewis Meriwether and Mina Clark, they hope to expand their infant nation, and to reunite the States. But the Sanctuary will not allow them to escape without a fight.
